Welcome to CyrilWecht.com

Welcome to the world of forensic pathology, where mystery meets science,
law and medicine join forces, and amazing discoveries lurk around every
corner. Most importantly, it is a world where the application of fundamental
scientific principles and sound investigative techniques can help to uncover
the truth and ensure that justice is served.

As a practicing forensic pathologist for the past 40 years, I have spent
the majority of my life seeking social truth and justice through the application
of these principles and techniques to some of the world’s greatest
mysteries. Over that period of time, I have watched forensic science in
general undergo dramatic progress, most recently in the areas of DNA testing
and computer simulation.

I’ve created this website to share my fascination with this constantly
growing world with colleagues, aspiring forensic scientists, and students.
I hope you find it informative and engaging.
